The Real Man's BBQ Grill
We have been in our new home just under 3 weeks now and you realize you have to create a priority list of items you'll need. The first was the washer and dryer. Boring, but necessary. The 2nd, however, got to be the grill.
Now, this is grill is not for the casual griller - she's a charcoal grill with 830 sq. in. of cooking surface on the main grill, and an additional cooking area in the fire box. She can be a grill and/or a BBQ smoker. No gas here - only charcoal or wood for this man. She required assembly, of couse. And I actually polyurethaned all the wooden boards so they would last longer and have a nice finish.
My friends know how much I love to cook, and getting a grill was something I was really looking forward to when owning my place. Thank you mom and dad for the great housewarming gift! This is something I am really going to enjoy!
I took her on her maiden voyage this past weekend, and she is going to require a few tries to tame the beast. She eats up a lot of fuel, which I was not prepared for, and she is a whole lotta grill to control. Because of the cast iron grates, she will also require a little more attention so she does not rust, but it's all worth it for that optimal grilling taste and experience.
We're open for business!

Looks good... I'm sure some of those pork riblets we used to cook will turn out real nice on that beast of a grill after a short marinade bath. Not to mention some nice fat steaks. Congrats btw on the house purchase.
